Benjamins Park Memorial Chapel

About

The Jewish funeral ritual is not only a time-honoured tradition designed to take leave of the dead in a sensitive and dignified manner, it is also the foundation on which the process of mourning is built. A chapel service provides the necessary environment for family and friends to share their grief, to confront the realities of death and to celebrate the achievements of life. 

Jewish tradition deems attending both the funeral and burial services to be a mitzvah, a religious obligation. For this reason we are required, whenever possible, to accompany the dead to the cemetery and to participate in the burial. 

If you are not familiar with Jewish tradition, we hope the following information will make you feel more comfortable as you support your friends at this sad time.
